You're doing a good job with the yellow! I think the results will be worth it. 

Thanks, I appreciate that. It's just frustrating but rewarding the amount of time involved with the color. I think painting a 150+ model army from past OFCCs went faster than these few models.

What would you think about adding a little bit of orange or white to these robits? Break up some of the larger yellow panels with a stripe or armored piece of color.

Well day one of OFCC Infinity event is history. As I sit here relaxing and drinking a cup of coffee I am contemplating the previous days games. 3 great games, all losses but that's from my incompetence/inexperience and not the force im playing. My army looks good IMO from my birds eye view above the table. I especially like the temp bases I have on my models now. The hex pattern looks good and they stand out. Maybe I'll keep them and use my fancy bases for another project. 

Looks like it's time to start packing for day two of OFCC Infinity. Can't wait to see the terrain, my opponents forces, and of course my friends.

Okay, so day 2 is now in the history books. I really had a great time. Lost every single one of my games. Had fun getting my arse handed to me though. I think for me that this was the best OFCC. I was not a captain - thank God! I did not have to heard cats, wipe people noses, worry about who was having or not having a good time, who was playing nice with others and who wasn't, who was going to show on time or be late to their games and finally who was drunk. All I had to do was make sure I was good to go and boy was that refreshing. I'm tired but satisfied...

Now it's time to plan for next year. Do I start a new force because that is what I do or do I add JSA to my YuJing? Oh the dilemma.

Last Saturday I took my YuJing ISS to Glimpses for an Infinity Tournament. Pretty small turnout with only 4 players but it was a good event. I learned a ton. I really need to play at the 300pt level more often.  It was hard transitioning from all of OFCC 200pt games that we played. I found myself playing way too slowly. All things considered I took 3rd place. Not sure how I managed that small miracle but yeah!

I couldn't make it on Sat, but I'll fore sure be at the one in September.  I'll give you another crack at my Onyx, and hopefully your Su jian will get a chance to do some work this time.

I must admit, I really had fun taking control of your TAG and shooting Dr Wurm!  Since you disabled my TAG wanna be.

Its Escalation League time again!  This time I'm going Yu Jing with a slant towards JSA.  My list for tonight really sucks but well see what happens.  150pts and King of the Hill.  My thoughts are to move towards the center of the table laying smoke to cover my approach.  I have one long range HMG and one short range MK12 to cover approach or knock people off of the building.  I hope to get the CC specialists and Chain Rifles up onto the roof and hold it for my turn 3.

@Ichi has been running Sun Tze and x2 Yan Huo... it's painful.

I get no Reserve model and he gets to place x2 and those 2 are very very nasty...

And the games we've played it's been 2 matches with x2 HMCs and 1 with  X2 Missile launchers with Neurocinetics... 

Being on the receiving end of that was pretty nasty and the only reason I won one match was because he killed me so fast he couldn't score points 😀
